1. It is not the court but rather the state attorney that reduces charges.

2. Neither the court nor the state attorney needs to reduce your charge. The state attorney can charge you with whatever they feel that the evidence supports.

Good luck,

It is within the state's discretion how to proceed against you so no, they do not have to do the same thing in your case as your friend's case.
